When opening the resulting exported HTML-coded Excel file (.xls), a dialog similar to the following may be displayed:

php.ini Setting and Resulting Exported HTML-coded Excel Spreadsheet File

Please note that if the "short_open_tag" in the /etc/php.ini file of a server (of this web client plugin) is NOT set to* "on*", then the resulting exported HTML-coded Excel spreadsheet may be just a blank file.

The following alternatives as workaround options (for those who have encountered this "blank file" problem, else one need not do anything):

  • either change the "short_open_tag" in the /etc/php.ini file
          to
    No Format
    
                 short_open_tag = On

  • or change line 15 of the SaveToExcel.php file,
          from
    No Format
    
                 <body><?=$_REQUEST['datatodisplay']?>
          to
    No Format
    
                 <body><?php echo $_REQUEST['datatodisplay']?>
     
     
    Of these, we recommend updating the /etc/php.ini file.
    BTW, after either change, one may need to clear clear the browser cache (close & restart browser session) to ensure the change takes effect.
